Creative, contemplative resources for families and kids' programs



Stillness with stories: playful contemplation for children



This resource was designed to share some of the contemplative wisdom we explore at Journey On with young children. Each section in this resource includes a storybook, discussion questions, a brief connection with a scripture or quote, a practical contemplative exercise and a creative activity. If you'd like a PDF copy of the complete resource (16 sessions), email us at connect@journey-on.net to request a copy.

Be still and know: contemplative practices for kids and teens



For thousands of years people have been finding ways to be still with God. Different people have been doing this in different ways and at different times. In each session of this resource, kids will meet someone new who will tell them about how they like to be still with God. A sample of the resource is available for download below. If you'd like a copy of the full resource--nine sessions along with daily contemplative journaling prompts--you can email connect@journey-on.net to request a copy.
